According to Hepco, The dual V bearings I have (W3) are 5900N raidal and 1701N axial, literature here... http://www.hepcomotion.com/en/view-pg-21-view-6
I aquired 12 of them from work for nuppence they were left over from a job, and based their use on Joe's Hybrid design here... http://www.joescnc.com/themachines-hybrid.php
I was a bit skeptical about running them on steel angle rather than the ground V they are intended for but Joe seems to have had success with his design.
I originaly went for box, attached pics of the unfinshed box section model below, I could return to box section, I've been thinking about what Irving said in a previous post about cutting access holes for spanners etc, this would mean re thinking the position of the lead screw on the X axis though, which could make the X axis carridge more complicated.
I would rather not buy any supported rail, financially I have to run with what I have but I take on board the comments made about the side load on the bearings.
With the forces Irving calculated would this be an issue though ?
